@Texas-Hawk-10 Apparently the MW got penalized in seeding because so much of the teams’ metrics were earned playing each other. But hasn’t that been true of the Big 12 for years?
-
Cam Martin sighting for Boise. He just got T-d up for throwing a ball very lightly at a guy who tossed the ball at him very lightly who also got T-d up. Pretty laughable T really unless there was something said.
-
We should have a thread tracking former Jayhawks in the tournament… There are quite a few.

@bskeet Here’s a snippet I just read. 27. Tyon Grant-Foster, F, Grand Canyon Grant-Foster is one of the most inspiring stories in college basketball this season. His career began at Kansas as a bench role player before he transferred to DePaul. At halftime of his first game with the Blue Demons, he collapsed in the locker room and had to have his heart shocked back into rhythm. He’s since had a heart surgery and defibrillator implanted in his chest. Medically cleared to return to the court, he signed with GCU where he’s become the WAC Player of the Year by averaging 19.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.7 steals per game. He’s great at getting to the free throw line (12th in the nation in FTA) and converting his freebies (77% FT).
This was from a SB nation top 50 players in the dance list. Interestingly I was at that DePaul game and never heard about what happened to him until i read that.

The guy he threw the ball at was Eddie Lampkin- -and I think he played at TCU ? - Lampkin flushed the ball on Martin then stepped over him first then dropped the ball on him and then Martin threw it back at Lampkin

Cincinnati needed overtime but gets past San Francisco in the opening round of the NIT. Would be pretty funny if a B12 team could win both tournaments. Think they may have a better shot with the NCAA one.
-
@wissox The seeding is questionable like @Texas-Hawk-10 said. The part that was a bummer to me is that likely no one on this board heard a recap of the CSU/UVA game and heard positive things about CSU. They’ve actually been a very entertaining watch all season and now they’re lumped into the ‘worst game ever’ because of the narrative about their opponent. Ultimately the CSU story (and the whole MW story) only changes when they win more games in March. Besides SDSU last year, the conference has struggled quite a bit in the tourney.
-
Welp time for BYU to start. - - Let’s go big 12, pulling for everyone now prove the strength and toughness of this conference
-
Go BYU
-
Well BYU didn’t represent the league to well starting off. They never led for majority of the game, I think they led for like maybe a minute. - -not a good start
-
I didn’t see BYU run any of the screens they used at AFH where they would get one 3 point shooter open to draw the defense, then a second shooter took the open shot. It always seems like Big 12 coaches and teams play much harder and game plan better against KU than in the tournament.

They really looked out of sync all day today. They for the longest time was having to scramble on defense — you would find 2-3 BYU players all cluttered up trying to run their offense for quite awhile just out of sync

WOW – Texas leading Colorado St- - -39-32 with 7 :30 to go in the game - - those baskets must be sealed shut
-
Is the Texas team mostly seniors? That weaver kid is a hustler.
-
@jayballer67 Score was 27-11 at half! Tex/COLST. Colorado state made a pretty good comeback after that disaster.
-
I hate to even bring up the OAK-UK game. Grizzlies are angry tonight
-
UK struggling tonight. Trailing Oakland by 3 at 11:55 of 2nd half.

@jayballer67 one of my favorites from Rupp Rafters: “No other coach in the history of NCAA BB has wasted this much talent”

Like I posted in a thread here - -Matt Norlander thinks he has Coached his last game, Matt saying what he is hearing in the Basketball industry Cal is through at UK
-

-
Scott Drew to UK would not surprise me.
-
Wisconsin in big trouble. JMU had pedal to the metal for 20 and i think can maintain it.

Not a chance in hell. Dan Hurley at UConn would likely be at the top of their list.
-
Tyon Grant-Foater having a nice night for GCU. 16 pts midway through 2nd half.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 is that realistic? Would he want that job over UConn? Something makes me think he is cemented in Stores.
-

No idea if Hurley would be interested, but if he’s not, he’d absolutely leverage it for a raise at UConn. Other names that would likely be contacted are Jay Wright, Bruce Pearl, Billy Donovan, or Tommy Lloyd. Basically, Kentucky could contact just about any coach and they would listen because it’s Kentucky which is a top 3 job in college basketball.

KU Women playing against Michigan, 39-46 trailing by 7 with 2:40 in 3rd, back and forth.
Hopefully they can pull it off.
-
KU Women came from behind and won in OT.
Big Win for KU Women.
-
HEELS HEELS HEELS
-
@FarmerJayhawk if only I could down vote lol, definitely don’t want UNC getting another title.

The board now shifts to focus on a Lady Jayhawks’ dream run… They will have to be the giant-killers on Monday.

Ya USC on their home floor- - -with what’s her name

@bskeet that USC team is really good but they are super young compared to us. Hopefully that’s a good thing

Might be some good viewing tonight to see Indiana St and Cream Abdul Jabbar take on Cincy in the NIT. 8 central on ESPN.
-
@wissox lol i had to bite https://deadspin.com/robbie-avila-kareem-abdul-jabbar-ncaa-tournament-1851298896

@approxinfinity You hadn’t heard of him? He’s a really dynamic player. Defense is pretty poor which I think keeps him in mid major territory. Chicago kid too which makes me proud but like why Terra Haute? Why not more local here?
